Is anybody else loving all this Olympic coverage?? I have to say those high jump skiers scare me every time! How do they do it? How are they able to bend their bodies parallel to their skis? Don't even get me started on the figure skaters. There is no way I could whirl my body around that quickly without losing my lunch.
A teacher friend of mine shared this wonderful link that explains the science behind the Olympic games. Check it out- it's pretty cool!
